Big hoo-haa in The Sun about DVO getting rushed to NHS overloaded hospital with her shoulder. Is it really necessary etc. I guess they have a point.

SheldonesqueIsUnwell · 18/01/2021 10:14

I have dislocated both my shoulders. To get pain relief I would have waded through a croc infested river and kissed Tony Blair. And possibly Boris. I have not known pain like that before or since.

You’d have thought that they would have had private medical facilities though.

There will be injuries and it be Covid times. It is an unnecessary burden on the Nhs and healthcare is something that should have been in place.

But in the absence of it? I wouldn’t leave my worst enemy in that pain. (Well yes I would but he was a nasty bully)

Despite a dislocated shoulder being bloody painful it has the ability to trap nerves & blood vessels if not treated properly.

People should remember hospitals are still hospitals NOT Covid Treatment Centres. A & E are still operating normally. Private medical centres don't always have A&E facilities.

SheldonesqueIsUnwell · 18/01/2021 12:37

Fair doos iklboo.

Been there and done it. Still have bother 30 years on.

iklboo · 18/01/2021 12:45

It's awful I believe Sheldon - one of our friends dislocated his shoulder & it still randomly pops out on him.

SheldonesqueIsUnwell · 18/01/2021 13:03

I was on base and the time and they cracked open the battle packs for pain relief. I can’t remember anything but pain and me screaming.

I’m usually ruftytufty with pain. I might let slip a tear but I don’t scream or fuss. I did with that Blush

I hope DVO is going to be ok. I recognise the upturned turtle thing she did. Smile Until you are incapacitated, you forget how often you unconsciously use your arms for stuff.

I’m looking forward to next week 👍🏼

Honeyroar · 18/01/2021 13:08

I’ve a shoulder that dislocates too. I’ve had several operations on it over the years, and touch wood it’s well nailed back in nowadays. Tbh she’s crazy trying to carry on. It needs resting to repair properly - any falls or yanks will set it back and stretch the ligament/muscles even more. If I heard right, she only partially dislocated it, which is good and can heal well. I learned the hard way that if you ignore injury and try to push through it you pay later.

@SheldonesqueIsUnwell

Ah kimchi - how do.

I’ve no idea how Rufus got that ticket. I can only imagine he is a regular guest on This Morning or something...

Either that or his moustache is being used to fluff the judges or something. Wink

How do Smile

I know. But isn't it amazing that he had to move weeks and got the ticket...

SheldonesqueIsUnwell · 18/01/2021 13:52

Innit though kimchi

Where is a Sherlock emoticon when you need it...

Honeyroar. I think she might regret pushing on through. Here’s hoping it really isn’t so bad. 🤞🏼

Roll on next week. Smile

I do hope LadyL stays in. God only knows who she’ll be up against. It isn’t even worth surmising - I’d have never have put her at the bottom - so who knows how the vote will go.

I feel so sorry for LL. She was different, and brought such a fresh energy.
SheldonesqueIsUnwell · 18/01/2021 14:01

I can be quite traditional with Strictly and Skiddy but there was something, as you say, fresh and engaging with LadyL.

She looked as though she was loving it as well. I was quite taken with it.

Frankly she wuz robbed of that ticket.

I don’t like that golden ticket. 🎫

No good will come of it. Mark my words. 🤨

iklboo · 18/01/2021 14:10

The Golden Ticket is a pile of Willy Wonka.

CharityDingle · 18/01/2021 14:27

Yay, just found thread. DOI is my favourite of all such programmes.

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 18/01/2021 14:37

I didn't get chance to watch last night, but will catch up today. I loved the early series, but haven't watched so much recently. Can't believe Matt Evers is still there, I remember him with Bonnie Langford!

Berthatydfil · 18/01/2021 16:18

I can’t understand the golden ticket thing.

Also who was the skater with the man bun thing doing the ariel stuff - I think he was dancing with graham bells replacement partner so I wondered if they keep a few spare professionals in case of injury but they don’t credit them unless they are partnering a celeb.

Wheresmykimchi · 18/01/2021 16:19

On a serious note , given his tweets etc, I don't know how Rufus can be appearing on let alone applauded on mainstream TV. Others in the past have been blacklisted for far less.

Meredusoleil · 18/01/2021 22:00

So glad I'm not the only one that thinks LL was the best skater last night, despite not knowing who the heck she is 🤔 and Rufus getting that bloody Golden Ticket - for what exactly? The entertainment factor? Because he's the underdog? 🧐

I really can't help but feel the scoring was not what it should have been tbh.

Plus I thought Vardy was quite good too. How she's managed to pop out 5 kids with that guy though, I'll never work out 🤨

Wheresmykimchi · 18/01/2021 22:03

Just a thought.

Do you think they're all better this year because none of them are working?

Honeyroar · 18/01/2021 22:40

Yes that’s a possibility. I guess the ice rinks won’t be open to the public either?

iklboo · 23/01/2021 14:17

Rufus Hound has to self isolate for 10 days. There's thoughts he may have to pull out altogether.

Ooft. Now how strange he got the golden ticket so wouldn't be skating this week anyway.....
iklboo · 24/01/2021 18:03

Here we go.......

Elderflower14 · 24/01/2021 18:05

Billie saying she's not sure she can do it... Bet she didn't say that when she got the fat signing on cheque.
Won't be sorry if Hound doesn't come back!

I'd be happy if he didn't come back and LL got through instead
